Uldraic Schomberg,lborn in Germany, to wards the commencement of the seventeenth century, .lost his sight by the smallpox, it the age of three; but as he grew up, he ap- 1 plied himselfto the study .of the belles leares,' which he afterwards professed with credit at 4ltorf, at Leipsic, and at Hamburg. Bourch enu de Valbonais, born at Grenoble, in 1651, became blind when very young, soon after the naval combat at Solbape, where he had been present. But thiti accident did not pre vent him' from 'publishing the "History of Dauphine," in two volumds folio'. He had made profound researches into the history of his province, aud, besides the work just men tioned, published a "Nobiliaire of Dduphine." Dr. Nicholas Saundersoin, Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in the University of Cambridge was one of the most remarkable men of his time. He was born in d 682. at aSsmall town in the county of York, and died at Cambridge in 1739, at the age of fifty six., He invented a table, which has Since:been greatly improved for teaching arithmetic :palpably to Ithe blind. Then there is Dr. Illacklock, of whom every one has beard. Dr. Henry Moyes professed the Neivdmian philosOphy, which e taught with considerable success as an itinerant lectu rer. He was also a good chemist, si respecta ble mathematician, aunt n tolerablemusician. M. Phefel, of Colmar, who los his. sight when very , young, in consequei ce of a . violent ophthalmia; composed a gm ' t deal of I poetry, (6 vols. Bve4 Colmar, 1791,) Consisting I chiefly of fableS, i . otne, of which have been translated / into French by'hi.Deger,Ondo. He was privy counsellor to the Margravd, of Baden and established at! Colmar a military school or academy, where children of the est fami lies were sent to he educated., Among the pupils of this learned blind matt . may be mentioned Prince' E i Semberg, and M. Heil man, lately pensionaryi of the Quinze-Vingts. He died in Colmar in 1809. Weisseinburgh of Mannheim .became blind at the age of 'seven. He wrote I perfectly, and read with characters which Ihe had imagined for his' I own use. He was an !excellent geographer, [ and cowp"sed map's' and globes, which he ' employed both in studying and teaching this science. He was the inventor of an arithme tical table, differing but little from that of Saundersen. I' . The blind man of Piiiseaux must he known to all who 'hive read Diderot's celebrated "Lettres sur les Aveuges." He was son of a professor of philosephY in the Universby of Paris, and had attended with advantage courses of chemistry arid botany at the Jardin du Roi. After having dissipated a part of, his fortune, he retired to Puiseaux, whi , re he established a distillery; the products of which he came regularly once a year to Paris to dis pose of. There was originality , in everything that he did. His custom was to sleep during the day, and to rise in ; the evening; ho work ed all night,- "bcCanie," as he himself said,, "he was not then disturbed by anybody.'?—, Hie wife, when shelroSe in the morning, used to find everything /perfectly arranged. He spoke very sensibly of the qualities and de fects of the organ on Which he was deficient, and answered questions put to him with much justness and discrimination. To. Diderot, who visited him at Puiseaux, he put some very singular queStions on the transparency of glass, colors, and such like matters. He asked it natnralists• Were the only persons who saw with the Microscope, and if astrono 'niers were the onlyipersons who saw with the telescope; if the Machine which Magnified objects was greaterithan that which ;diminish- , ed them ; if that Which brought them - near was 'shorter than that Which. removed them to a distance. lie li,elieved that as&onomers ' hid eyes of different conformation from those of other men, and that a man could not de vote himself to 'the -study df a particular science without haVing eyes specially adapt ed for the purpose. I- "The eye," said he, 'is an organ upon which the air ought 03 prouce the same effect as my cane does upon; my hand." He possesied the Memory, of sounds . (to a surprising.degree,land recognized by'the ' Voice thtise whom; he had only herird speak once. - Ire could tell if, he was in a thorough• fare or in, a. cut:de-sac, in.a large or in a small place. He estimated the proximity of fire by the degree of heat; the coMparative fullness of-vessels by thesound of the liqitor in falling ; and the neighborhood df. bodies by the action of the; airy on his face. I He em ployed characters in relief, in order to teach his son to read i and the latter neve r had any other master than his father. M. Huber of Geneva, art..excellen natural-' ist i .and author of the best treatise eitant .ch bees and ants, was blind from:his earliest in, fancy. In reading She -descriptione of 'these insects, we can scarcely persruidel3 urselves that they are not the prodtiction of a singu larly clear-sighted man, well versed in thinl branch of natural history.,' Jr exechting •his great work, however, M. Huber had, no other assistance than what he derived froth his do mestie, who mentioned-Ito' him the' color .of the insects; and then Ihe aseettained their, form and, size by.tonch; with the sante facili ty as he Would have reCognite:d.theat by their I humming when flying in ,the 'air. - Thiel laborious writer has also published al Valuable work on education. ; I I Francis Lesseur, born. of very pool* parents ;l at. Lyons, on - the sth of. August, 170'6, laithie sight when only six weeks old. ‘He went td Paris in 1778, and 'was; begging at the gate of a church, when M. Reny, discovering in the young mendicant some inclination to 'study * received him,'and undertaok the talc of ini strutting him,tit the seine time Prornising hini a sum equal' to that which be had - cOlected i alms. _ Lessenr began to study i., It:October 1784. Six Months after, he was ahle to read to compose with eharaCters in relief,l to print; and in less than two years he had letirned the French language, geography, andmOtoic, which he understood very well. His intelliger.ce and , penetration were indeed surprising; and be was among the blind.what Massien has since been an.ong the deaf and dumb. I He was' successively repeater to his comrades, head of the printing and economy of the itistitntion - for the blind, and pensionary ot the --- Puinze- Vingts: It is paiuful to add ; ttat he proved unthankful to bis benefUtor and Master, to .whoui - he owed everytting; and that by his conduct he trot - J ilted the reproach of - ingrati ! . Lade; a 'Me - Which; yith some reason', has been 1 ebitried against the blind generally 1.,-- Avisse, born at Paris, was one o the most distinguished eleves. of the, histitu ton: His i NM father, who kept furnished lodgings in : the Rue Guenegaud, intended him -for the sea ; and he embarked, when very young, on board a . .vessel fitted ant ' for the slave trade, in the capacity of secretary or clerk :o the captain; but he was struck by a coup de vent ort the coast of Africa, and lost his sight from the violent inflammation which ensued.. On his return, his parents procured his admission in -to On institution for the:blind - , where, in.a few years, he became professor of grammar and logic. 'He prod - need a comedy in verse, ,in one act,- entitled "La Ruse d'Avengler which was performed ; ,and several ether pieces, which were all printed in one volume 12mo, in the year 1803. He died before he had com pleted his thirty-first year, at the very time when the high hopes entertained of him were on the point of being realized. • .. Nor have the blind been leas distinguished in the practice of the arts than in science and literature. - Many instances of their eminence in this respect may be •mentioned. Indeed, the want of sight seems little or no impedi ment to manual dextrity. Stengel mentions a young,cabinet-maker of Ingolstadt, who, having lost his sight 4 an explosion ot gun powder, amused himself by constructing pep per mills, which he made without the use of any other instrument than a common knife, and executed with so 'much exactness and elegance, that they were thought deserving of a place in the gallery of, curiosities at Munich, where they may :still be seen. , Sir 'Benelat Digby has stated several extraordinary parti culars of a preceptor of his son, who was so completely blind that. he could not distinguish the light of noonday from midnight. He sur passed in skill the ablest players at chess ; at long distances, he shot arrows with such pre ciston, almost never to miss the mark; he con, stantly went abroad without a guide, and fre quented,most of the public promenades; he regularly took his plebe at table, and ate with such dexterity, that it was impossible. to per ceive that he was blind; when any one spoke to him fOr the first time, he was able to tell with certainty his stature and the form of his body; and when hisipupils recited in his pro settee, he knew in what situation and attitude they were. Aldrovandus mentions a butcher of Boulogne, Who estimated by touch, the weight of the animal he was abouttolsill. M. de Piles saw in Italpa blind man; a -native of Gambassy in Tuscany, who was a very good designer. M. de Piles met him in the iatin- Mill Palace , where lie was modelling in wax a statue .of Minerva. By means of tout:it - he had seized with precisiou the form and propor tions of the original. The Duke of Breccia im, 'who had seen him working, doubted wheth ' er he was completely blind; and in .order to put the matter to the test, he caused the - dr -fist to take his portrait, in• a dark cave. It proved a striking likeness. Some, however, objecting that the duke's beard, which was of • patriarchal amplitude, had helped the artist to recogniie him, the latter offered to execute a . portrait of One of Abe duke's daughters,'which lie accordingly did, and it also proved . , iti ex; cellent likeness. 1 . . Giovanni GatnhasioJ 'of Volterra, 10-t his sight at the age of twenty, and remained ten years in this state, ignorant of even the ele ments of sculpture. All of a sudden, howev er "the desire of making a statue came upon him;" and having handled in every way a marble :figure representing Cosmo de' Medici, ' he formed one of clay, so extremely like, that it astonished-all who satv it. His talent.,Jor statuary now developed itself „to such a degree. that• Prince Ferdinand; Grand Duke -of ;Tus cany, sent him to Rome, to model the . statue of Pope Urban VIM, Which he also rendered a strikitrs a likeness of the original. , He also executed many others with equal success. A Dutch organist, blind from- his ' early youth, • became very skillful initis profession; he also acquirod the habit of distinguiShing by touch the different kinds of inoney,.and even, it is said, the primary collora He wis.it first rate card-player; for, in 'dealing, he knew the cards . which he gave to others, as well as those -which he kept for himself.. Chauvet, born blind,was for several years organist of Notre-Dante de- Bonne Nouvelle at Paris. -Mademoiselle Par:' adis of Vienna, who had lost her sight when two yeari old, formed the delight of the spi , ritual concerts at Paris, in the' year 1784. This lady, who had great talents for. musical composition; invented armethod Of writing ? whatever she composed, I figuring the con - cords. She began at first by tracing them on cards pricked with needles; but this first es say proving unsatisf a ctory, she fell upon anoth• er method, which, however, has not been ex plained—a-eircumstance we regret the more, since it has been-described asvat once certain and of easy execution. Holman, : the blind traveller, being still alive, can scarcely with propriety be made the subject of a notice in this- place. . , feet, ,Ltin— hours, =3l CORN AND, Aceltt.—There are :even dif• ferent kinds Of griki , :v nealtivated for food, all of which are produced from the natural• family ofgmases ; these are maize (or Indian corn.) wheatrbarley, oats, rye, millet and rice. In' 'every country there is one particular kind which is the corn of the country. Thus in England, afarmer, speaking of Ins corn crop, would he referring to his wheat ; but in Scot• land the term would be applied to oats or bar. Icy. ;Torn" is a Saxon word, meaning fruit; hence we have ak.corn; or acorn, the fruit of the oak. e LOCOMOTIVES ASCENRING STEEP INCLINES. —A. Regazzoli, an Italian, has taken out a patent in England fora new method of im• pelting railway trains by steep ascents. A cylinder having on its circumference two helices forming a double-threaded screw, is placed under and parallel to the axis of the boiler. This screw cylinder is set in motion by the engine, rind" . gears with a 'series of horizontal pulleys placed between the line of rails, which pulleys act as aleft-handed screw, and thhs the train is wormed op the incline. EARTINEAKES.—Thdre _Pre two theories respecting the cause •of earthquakes. Ist.— The igneous theory ; vbich maintains that the earth was once a molten fiery ball, and that its ; interior is still a fiery mass, and is sometimes caused to generate waves, which produce oscillations on the earth's surface.— '3d. The electric theoryf which attributes the shocks' to disturbed:magnetic action, in, the crust of the globe—that the shocks are no thing more than powerful electric shocks. As earthquakes are local, those who dispute the igneous theory, assert that if the interior of the earth were a molten mass, and earth quakes were caused by waves of this"fluid, then the oscillations would be.' felt, equally strong on every part of the earth's crust. HORSE SHOEING WITHOGT NA ` ll.B.-A me chanic named Short, of New London, Con necticut, 11. S., has invented a horse shoe which can be put on without naili. He makes the whole in two pieces, employing in addi tion van small screws to aid in screwing the parts together., Both are made of malleable won—the lower portion, or "pole," being very similar to the horse shoe ordinarily employed, but with a' groove around its exterior, and without nail holes. The upper portion, or "vamp," is t thin, and he r e a flange projecting inward from its lower edge,, to match the groove in the sole. / These posts are so ar ranged, as to secure a tight and firm connec tion, and the whole is made additionally se cure by the aid of the set screws before men tioned at the,heel. A shoe of this kind once fitted, the vamp may be made to wear out a. great number of- shoes.—Engineering Jour how—Hs Pttonecnox.—ln the days of Alexander,' a lump of iron" weighing icing pounds, was considered a valuable piece of property. It is a well known fact that the pro duction and manufacture of iron'are entirely . the result Of modern civilization. But little more than a century ago, remarks the Balti more American, the total production of the metal in England did not exceed 17,350 tons; and in the whole of Europe the prOduct was not,more than 100,000 tone, of which 60,000 tons were contributed by Sividen and Russia; Even this limited manufacture caused such a consumption of. woodohat, but fur the dis ccivery of Dudley; who substituted the mine ral coal, for charcoal, it must have been con siderably diminished.

Hewitt, on the statistics ad geography of the produc tion of iron. (In 1782 the total quantity of British hammered iroirexported, did not ex ceed 427 tons. In 104, the total quantity of pig-iron exported - was 293,074 tons; peddled and rolled iron 883,237 tons; to whic h if one-' third be added for waste in convers ion, the real quantity exported will be 1,177,649 - tons —total British iron exported, 1,470,723 tons. During the last sixty-six years it is estimated that this invention ;rit Benry Cort, has saved to the country £300,000,000 sterling, besides feeding and clothing four generations of work men and their families, or more than 600,000 people for sixty years. . Nielson's invention of the hot blast in 1830 had a marked, effect upon .ooduction, having doubled the production in a few years. In 1854 the total make in England )reached 3,- 585,906 tabs. This tremendous product which was actieved by the direct labor- of 238,000 men, was'valued al, $125,000,000. But even these figtires, enormous as they may seem, will appear trivial when we come to consider the gigantic proportion to which the iron bu siness is yet destined to attain. The present annual production of the world is set dciWn as not exceeding 7,000,000 .tons, of which Great Britain supplies rather more than one half.' Frcim 1740 to 1855 the production of • iron increased 7,000 per cent.. At the same rate of increase, the annual make of the world - would reach in a century from this, 400,000,. 000 tons.; But allowing, as Mr. Hewett sup poses, the total production to double only once in 20 years, we will have:in 1955, 1923, 000;000 as the product of that year. The manufacture of iron in the United States, ncitwithstanding the almost boundless extent of, our stock of ore, is:et compara tively small. Our yearly pr oduct is. about 750,000 tens, nearly' one-fifth less than that of England. This great disparity, however, is .not like y to, continue long. 4W: England, the most :favorableloeations are already fully occupiek while in the United States, the um developed deposits as before stated, have beeti , _ scarcely touched. Our ores, 'says the New York Pail, remarking upon this same subject, include almost every variety found in Europe and some which have no rival. It is therefore thrown lulu, as more than a probability, an ab solute certainty, tharflie United States, stim ulated by no unhealthy or artificial action, but acting iM,ohedience to the known laws of de mand and supply, will .at no distant period, not only .furnish all the iron necessary for home co nsumption, but may largely export to other countries the products of its iron de posits. In the:finer departments of iron work manship !we are a!readvcompcting with the workshops of-j: England. The importations for the year ending June, 1855, amounted to 428,820 ions, at a vainution of $15,924,736. It has been remarked as a singular fact, that in the softy days of iron making, considera ble quantities of iron were sent from America to England. In P;7O the , amount so trans ported was 7,525 tona, or one sixth of the en tire amount impoited into Great Britain from all quarters. Tlier, . are now 1,591 iron man factories in the United States, with an invest ed capital of $7,416,361. potitical. TUE eNION REsoLuTioNs.---Annexed are the Resolutions of the.

"The increnie of the wool product does not keep pace with' the increased population and consump tion of the, United States.
